We might find out in this match. Aerith has been knocking down Nintendo all contest so far, but now she stands against the beast that is Zelda. Its highly unlikely that Zelda is around Fox in strength, and yet can beat Squall with over 63%. Zelda took this match already back in 2006 with 57%. That sounded about right before this contest, but since then, Zelda has been on a tear. Sure, all her opponents have good reason to decline in strength, but Zelda has good reason to be a lot stronger with BotW in her pocket as well. Moltars Bracket: Zelda Moltars Prediction: Zelda 65% transiences Analysis This is a dozen year old rematch of a match that happened on the day FF12 released. Aerith still got crushed. Zelda's going to win here and nobody disputes that. The question is, is she going for 65% based on her performance against Squall, or is it something more reasonable? Aerith struggled to beat Waluigi, let alone Fox, so obviously she's not going to hang with an upper elite in Zelda who just demolished a superior character who has bodied her in the past. But... I don't know. Squall looked off this year, from the first minute of facing Hat Kid. Something I've noticed over the years -- some years, characters (or games) just "have it" and sometimes they're just holding on to their past legacies and coming up with possible excuses as they disappoint round after round until they get embarrassed. Like, take Crono back in 07 or 08, whatever year that was when he lost to Vincent. Crono just looked gimped those years, dying off after 3-4 hours, like he was just too old to matter to anyone but the most diehard contest followers. Then take Chrono Trigger in 2015, where it just flew out of the gate and demolished anything and everything in its path. Sometimes you have it. Squall did not. So what about Aerith? I actually have been kinda impressed by her, mostly due to my rock bottom expectations. She managed to beat Fox. With how Squall looked, I'm honestly not sure if he could have done that. Sora might not have been able to either. It's totally possible here that Zelda doubles her on her way to blasting away Solid Snake, but I think I want to give Aerith some credit and say that maybe she can hold it to 60%. Sucks to be you, Squall. transience's prediction: Zelda with 60.50% --- Moltar Status: contest hype Contest Analysis Crew Archives: http://thecrew.speedrunwiki.com/ <cite>Master Moltar posted [p:912565560] in Character ...
